Lemieux just about to start.
Quiet start, but Lemieux, just seemed the one pushing the fight.
Cant get over Davids stubby arms but he almost had Torres out of there
Wow what a body shot
Lemieux hammered him there. 10-7. The legs of L totally gone at the end.
Much better round 3 for Torres.
Good fight. Torres came back very well there. 2-1 Lemieux (plus 2 points)
Wow, Torres was winning that and then another 10-8. Lordy, lordy.
Bang! right at the bell and he was probably winning it.
It's a shame for Torres as he is boxing quite well, but then get hurt and knocked down each time. A single punch done three times is 3 points in the bag. That's boxing, but Torres must be feeling disheartened.
This is a fun fight:cool:
Damn stop the fight
Poor chap, but on he goes. Torres just cannot put a dent in the opponent though, he can outbox him, but then gets walloped.
Damn! Gotta wait another half hour for the HBO telecast to start.
I thought the banned the baby seal hunt.
The guy can punch. Crippling bodyshots. Is Kovalev up next?
Where was this referee in the Froch fight? :rolleyes:
Good fight, but a bullied one sided beat down in the end.
That ref seemed like he would have let it go on to the death:-\ Torres was completely outgunned, but found the mark pretty easily on Lemiux, who I thought would be really good a few years ago.
Please tell me HBO is not re airing Pac-Rios ??? Listed as 3 hr card
Somebody called Dan Donut up next.
I'm just reading that the HBO broadcast starts in fifteen minutes and the Manny fight is up first. Fuck. I'm never going to stay awake. Time to switch to fizzy water.Quote:

Why would they replay that punchbag fest when there is actual live boxing to cover? HBO makes no sense to me. Sometimes they play only the main event, likewise, why? Surely giving boxers exposure would be the goal.Quote:

War JOJO! I think Kev will win this though but I'd love to see Dan pull it out.
Great opening round, Dan the Man on volume and slickness.
I think Bizier glazes Donut.

Its all about the manitee idols and money makers for them. This is why I'm hoping and thinking Showtime is pushing Hbo off its ego mountain. On a standard fightnight Showtime would show the majority of undercard on a different Showtime channel as a lead in...Hbo shows True Blood and Fried Green tomatos ffs.Quote:

Bizier getting hurt by bodyshots. He could be in trouble here.
Ridiculous pace, is it really only the end of round 4?
At the very least they should have Pac KTFO Rios in the rerun.
No alternative?Quote:

Just had one PM'ed. Gonna check it out.
Just a superb fight. Pretty even.
It's not good. Spicoli is right Showtime seems to take the boxing much more seriously. What's the use of big names if you have never known where they came from? Should always show undercards. It's boxing, not names. Well, it should be.Quote:
